Big Pot for Wessel
Level 9
: 15,000/35,000, 35,000 ante
With 950,000 already in the middle and the flop showing 
, Stipo Vladic bet 425,000 on the button after two players had checked to him. A player in late position then moved all in and Mathias Wessel in the hijack reraised all in. Vladic asked for a count on both all ins, which were for 540,000 and 1.735 million (Wessel) respectively, and sent his cards into the muck. While the stacks were counted, the player in late position already grabbed his jacket and was ready to leave.
Once the showdown took place, Wessel's 
had locked up the pot, as the opponent only had 
. Both the 
turn and 
river didn't matter and the German boosted his stack significantly.
